Assignment: Gladwell, Ch 5 DEJ

Q Check out the background knowledge and vocab (if needed) Read chapter 5. Take notes in your text as you read. If you are taking notes on your own paper, you may only need to do the Double Entry Journal (DEJ) and not take additional notes. Do your DEJ. Then, upload your DEJ here to share with the class. PDF, Word, and Google files will be easier for me and your classmates to comment on. You can upload photos, but I recommend using Adobe Scan if you have multiple pages. Don't upload Mac "pages" files! Many of your classmates can't read them. Hit reply directly below to post your DEJ. If you need help uploading to the discussion check out this help page on uploading to a discussion. This 3-minute video by Seattle Central College also shows you how to attach files to a discussion.
